Installation problem.

[njd]

I've downloaded the free Linux version of the Intel compiler (7.0). I've tried both fomr the ftp and web servers, always with the same problem. When I try to
untar the file, I get errors like the following:

tar: flexlm64/chklic: Wrote only 3584 of 10240 bytes
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: flexlm64/END_USER_LICENSE: Wrote only 0 of 10240 bytes
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: flexlm64/HowTo.html: Wrote only 0 of 10240 bytes
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: flexlm64/INTEL: Wrote only 0 of 10240 bytes
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

Any suggestions how to get an uncorrupted version?

thanks!

Hi,

I was just able to download the C++ and Fortran non-commercial downloads from the US FTP servers. When I was checking the download, I ran out of disk space and saw a similar error as you reported. Then I checked the file size & saw I didn't download the entire file. After downloading to a disk with enough space, I was able to extract the tar files.

The filesizes are 64921600 bytes for C++, and 88709120 for Fortran.

Does this solve your issue ?

regards,
john

Actually, it gave me enough of a hint to fix it. I did
manage to download the full files, and there was plenty
of disk space on my home partition..but that tar was failing (says my admin person) due to missing temporary space elsewhere or something like that. Anyway, it now works fine,
from the downloaded files I had.

thanks
